Trust Ventures targets tech companies tackling broad public issues but facing high regulatory barriers.
Trust Ventures launched last year at Charles Koch's semiannual private retreat for donors to his sprawling social advocacy network.
The firm targets tech companies tackling broad public issues but facing high regulatory barriers. The firm is aligned with Koch's libertarian mission and can leverage its grassroots network and policy expertise. But Trust Ventures would not disclose its investors, saying only that it has received funding from a "diversity" of sources across the political spectrum.
So far, the group's portfolio includes nuclear energy company Oklo, meat alternative startup Emergy Foods and 3D homebuilder ICON.
